Baghdad - At least twelve civilians were injured in a chemical attack conducted by the ISIS terrorists in Mosul, different local news media reported over the last week. A recent news report documenting the battle for the west side of Mosul shows Kurdish Rudaw news site reporters embedded with Iraqi forces during offensive dismounted operations as they come under attack from possible chemical weapons from an ISIS mortar team. The attack was launched on the liberated areas of Mosul, using highly toxic gases, a police officer in the province of Nineveh said on Saturday. Captain Yunis Mohammed said in a press statement on Saturday that at least twelve civilians, including women and children, suffered severe suffocation, as a result of a chemical attack with toxic gases conducted by the ISIS terrorists. According to Mohammed, ISIS shelled the liberated areas of al-Adala, Bab al-Saray and Shaer Nineveh with missiles containing highly toxic gasses. He added that all casualties were transferred to nearby hospitals and medical centers immediately. The operation against ISIS in Mosul continues, as the Iraqi forces continue advancing deeper into western Mosul, however this has led to several reported chemical attacks conducted by the ISIS terrorists, as they put all efforts in keeping the territories they captured more than two years ago.
